✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 1,628 endorsements and 46k downloads — clearly a lot of people dig it.
- Covers all the key combat animations: power attacks, normals, idle, and blocking — a complete package.
- Works with battleaxes and warhammers too, so you get more bang for your buck.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2018 — might have issues with newer game versions or other animation mods.
- Only affects third-person view — first-person players won't see any change.
For Skyrim players who spend time in third-person and want more fluid, badass greatsword animations. If you're a first-person purist, this won't do anything for you. Skip if you're looking for gameplay changes — this is purely visual.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install — it'll handle the file placement automatically.
- Load order matters less for animation replacers, but if you have other animation mods, put this one lower so it takes priority.
- Test in third-person with a greatsword equipped — swing, power attack, block, and idle to see the new animations.
